I'm reading through the extensive description on which data is acquired by Microsoft's telemetry 1 including the following paragraph:
User generated files -- files that are indicated as a potential cause for a crash or hang. For example, .doc, .ppt, .csv files
I was wondering whether Microsoft actually gathers data from a word document, in case word crashes (hope on being wrong on this one).
Therefore my question is, is Microsoft getting the 'whole' file, only a paragraph or am I misreading that part of the documentation?

Here is what they spy on, finally officially admitted after being proved again and again by different independent sources. That should make a pretty good idea on what actually is transmitted.
To actually see what's being reported you can give yourself permissions for
%ProgramData%MicrosoftDiagnosis directory and look what's in there, but the file are encrypted which is a very suspicious thing.
What you can look at in the newer version is the Diagnostic Data Viewer. But that does NOT guarantee or prove that there is documents privacy in any way.
At this point my guess is that they will transmit parts of files that generated crashes, or if they consider proper to do so and definitely can transmit any type of document via the encrypted content in Diagnosis and https as the transmission way.
Their EULA states:
Finally, we will access, disclose and preserve personal data,
including your content (such as the content of your emails, other
private communications or files in private folders), when we have a
good faith belief that doing so is necessary to: comply with
applicable law or respond to valid legal process, including from law
enforcement or other government agencies;
2. protect our customers, for example to prevent spam or attempts to defraud users of the services, or to help prevent the loss of life or
serious injury of anyone; 3. operate and maintain the security of our
services, including to prevent or stop an attack on our computer
systems or networks; or
4. protect the rights or property of Microsoft, including enforcing the terms governing the use of the services - however, if we receive
information indicating that someone is using our services to traffic
in stolen intellectual or physical property of Microsoft, we will not
inspect a customer's private content ourselves, but we may refer the
matter to law enforcement.
Conclusion: they can and will do it at will.
